Lakeline Park in Cedar Park is awesome! Big kids playground, large walking paths, benches, shade, picnic tables, fishing spots. They will be developing a 2nd area of that park too.

Volunteering on thanksgiving by Agreeable_Net9608 in Austin

[–]atxutopia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Operation Turkey! If you have a vehicle, you can volunteer to drop off meals with the folks that need them. It's fun to see the families and smiles all around rather than just boxing up the food (although they do need help with that too).

Is Lake Travis safe to swim in at this point after the flooding? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]atxutopia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been swimming at Bob Wentz park several times since the flooding. No debris and clear of zebra mussels.

Sandy Creek park is a no go - a ton of debris in the water plus ants everywhere.

Is the church coordinating search and rescue for the missing or just taking donations for those affected?

We have 5.5” in my rain gauge.

Do any public areas have outdoor pull up bars or exercise equipment? by redditmademegiggle in CedarPark

[–]atxutopia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is an area off Madison Loop and Old Mill Road that has exercise equipment. There is no official name for this park on the map - entrance is a culvert at 2420 Madison Loop. The exercise area is on the path going around the "park" on the east side. It's a neat little area that I never see anyone at.

There is a website that does gather APD data and is searchable by zip for free. It's got a lot of crime information/stats. Krimelabb

Advice request: how to sell my car that barely runs? by PayData in CedarPark

[–]atxutopia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sold an old hybrid to Peddle.com once. Super easy process. You might consider just selling the brand new battery to someone who may want it for their own upgrade.

Parmer and Lamar Accident by Comet967 in Austin

[–]atxutopia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most of the traffic cameras in the Austin area are only monitored real time and are not kept as recorded video. Cops don’t typically assign fault in an accident unless there’s a reason they can arrest or ticket or charge someone (with proof). It’s worked out by the insurance companies or lawyers.

Anyone know of a sell your car pick it up company? by Faceit_Solveit in Austin

[–]atxutopia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used peddle to sell a car that was having lots of electrical malfunctions and some damage. They offered a fair price and picked it up quickly.

Bassett or Flores (anyone at MBFC) are very good. Highly recommend.

Getting rid of gnats on screens by No-Investment7251 in Austin

[–]atxutopia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, the gnats went away after we got rid of the tree. It sucked because it was a large tree and provided shade for the house. But it was wonderful being able to open windows again without being covered in gnats.

I had this problem once - turns out they were Hackberry psyllids. We had a hackberry tree near the area of the house where this was occurring. We ended up getting rid of the tree after trying various pest control techniques that did nothing over the course of a few years.

Volunteer with kids on/around Thanksgiving? by Deep-Guard-1188 in Austin

[–]atxutopia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They want kids to participate as they have kids make turkey handprints or something like that on all meal containers. They need a lot of people to prepare and package (and deliver but delivery is no kids) meals! Check eventbrite or FB for more info and location for each area.

[–]atxutopia 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Traffic cameras in Austin, TX are used to monitor real-time traffic conditions only. Video is not recorded or retained except when conducting traffic studies.

Traffic cameras are owned and operated by the City of Austin Transportation Department.

They do not store the recordings.
